The core business of our Energy Solutions division is the delivery of Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs) and Design/Build Contracts. Our ESPCs are a viable way to upgrade and renovate facilities in a budget‑neutral or even budget‑positive way. The process diverts money already being spent on utilities and directs it into facility upgrades, covering scope development, design, bidding, construction management, commissioning, measurement and verification, and even ongoing energy management services.
We have experience in designing the nation’s most energy efficient buildings, including many zero energy buildings. Our knowledge is unparalleled in the Guaranteed ESPC market, which allows us to dive deeper than our addition, CMTA’s Renewable Energy team brings extensive experience across the renewable energy sector, including behind-the-meter, front-of-the-meter, and community solar projects. Our team works in a wide range of building types, from dense urban environments to rural settings, and focuses on Solar PV, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), microgrids, and EV charging infrastructure — delivering innovative, reliable, and sustainable energy solutions tailored to each client’s needs.
As an integral member of our fast‑growing Energy Solutions division, your role will be to work with a team of engineers to design, bid, project manage, and commission solar PV, battery, and EV charging systems for various CMTA clients. You will help clients upgrade and renovate facilities in a budget‑neutral or budget‑positive way while delivering innovative, reliable sustainable energy solutions.
